Forum to submit charter of demands to CM

Lack of seats for Plus Two courses is chief concern
The Adi Shakti Summer School (ASSS), a collective of Adivasi and Dalit youths under the Adivasi Gothra Maha Sabha (AGMS), is gearing up to submit a memorandum to Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan on a host of issues being faced by tribal children in the State.
The pandemic situation and online education had made the tribal education sector more complex in the State, AGMS leader M. Geethanandan said. As many as 2,287 tribal students have passed SSLC examination this year in the State, but only 730 seats were allocated for their higher studies, Mr. Geethanandan said.
Though the organisation had requested K. Radhakrishnan, Minister for Tribal Welfare, and Tribal Development Director T.V. Anupama to evolve a permanent solution to the issues by increasing the number of seats in Model Residential Schools for tribal students and opening special batches, any positive steps were yet to be adopted, Mr. Geethanandan said.
